TITLE: The g-Meson Spectrum in Underground at a Depth Corresponding to - 40 m of Water ( Spektr p mezonov pod zemley na I-lubine, ekvivalentnoy , 40 m vody) PERIODICAL: Zhurnal eksperimentallnoy i teoreticheskoy fiziki, 1959, Vol 36, fir 3, pp 697-706 (USSSR) ABSTRACT: The momentum spectra of g-mesons at sea level and on mountains have already been investigated by a number of authors (Refs 1-6), among others by Alikhanyan and Alikhanov. Under,--round, the nucleon comuonent is rapidly absorbed and at a depth of B-10 r" the penetrating component consists of muons. It was the air. of the authors to investigate their spectrum in a depth of 40 m equivalent of water. The scheme of the experimental arrangement is shomn by figure 1 and is described in short. The data concerning the counters used are clearly given by table 1. Among the total of 12 rows some hundreds of counters were arranged. The radiotechnical part of the gyster.1 consisted essentially of a coincidence block and a hodoscope of the GKv7 type. The numerous measurin.- results are shown in tables Card 1/3 and diagrams. Thus, table 2 gives the obtained (5-v;~lues at Thep-Meson Spectrum in Undergrround at a Dr-,jt'i H = 3300 and 6300 Oe, table 3 showo the values of the li-lit power of the apparatus for n = 1~ 2, 3. The spectra constructed in consideration of light power were produced on the basis of the assumption that n = 2. In the momentum range p ~~ 2.109 ev/c the muon spectrum may be approximated by the formula 11(p)dn = N0dp/(p + p 0)7 , where 7 = 2,7L+0.2.' and Po = 9.8 Bev/c (Fig 5). This formula can also be used for the roughly approximated description of the spectrum in the ex- 8 tended range at p < 2.10 ev/c. The spectrum obtained permits the conclusion that the so-called anomalous muon scatter-in,.-, observed in a number of underground investigations can certain- ly not be caused by an underestimation of the number of slow muons. The authors finally thank A. 1. --'likhanyan for his help, advice, and discussions, and V. Kh. Volynskiy and V. Krugovykh for their assistance rendered in the course of the experimental part of the work. They further thank S. 111'. Vernov, it. L. Grigorov and G. B.

TITLE: Measurement of Particle Masses of Cosmic Radiation Under Ground (Izmereniye mass chastits kosmicheskogo izlucheniya pod zemley) PERIODICAL: Zhurnal eksperimentallnoy i teoreticheskoy fiziki, 119519, Vol 36, Nr 3, pp 921-922 (USSR) ABSTRACT: In the present "Letter to the Editor" the authors publish the results obtained by underground measurements of particle masses; they used a magnetic spectrometer which at the same time served for measuring the momentum spectrum and the positive muon excess in a depth of -40 m water equivalent. The scheme of the measuring device -gas already described in an earlier paper (Ref 1). Under the device was a lead block of 6 cm thickness, and under the telesccpe system there was a system of lead filters which were separated from one another by layers of hodoscope counters. As no precise measurements were intended, relatively thick filters (4cm) were chosen. The root mean square error in mass determination is mentioned as.amounting to 30P 17, and 12% for the filters Card 1 2 V, VI, VII respectively. The histogram determined from SOV/5 6- 716 -3 -43/71 Measurement of Particle Masses of Cosmic Radiation Under Ground 370 trajectories is shown by figure 1. All recorded positive and negative particles with 4 cm< R 416 cm were identified asi4-(or n-mesons). The particle masses observed were between 100 and 400 me witzi a maximum at 200 meI in one single case 500 me was found. The authors finally thank A. I. Alikhanyan for help, advice, and discussions, and V. Kh. Volynakiy and V. V. Krugovykh for their great help in carrying out the experimental part of the work, There are I figure and 3 Soviet references. ASSOCIATION: Fizicheskiy institut im. P. N.
